Abstract

Life Sciences & Biomedicine Science & Technology Dermatology
Palmoplantar pustulosis is a variant of psoriasis and a chronic skin disorder in which pruritic pustular eruptions appear on the palms and soles. It is thought to arise from a variety of genetic and environmental factors, is limited in prevalence, and has proven quite difficult to treat. The symptoms it inflicts on those affected are quite debilitating and the treatment landscape is constantly evolving, thus emphasizing the need for updates of the literature as time passes. Current treatments include topical agents, oral therapies, and phototherapy, amongst other treatments. In this systemic review, we explore newer literature from 2015 to 2022 on various treatment regimens for palmoplantar pustulosis.
